Chapter 83: Captain America: I will not compete with Lynn for the Illuminati!

By the balcony.

Listening to Joey's excited tone, Lynn said he understood, then hung up the phone.

He glanced at the clear picture of Steve Rogers that Joey had sent back on his phone.

Lynn began to ponder.

Lynn wasn't surprised by Captain America's "resurrection."

He had long known that Captain America hadn't truly died, but he hadn't expected S.H.I.E.L.D. to thaw Captain America in Brooklyn.

Recalling what Natasha had told him, that Nick Fury's desired Avengers hadn't yet been formed, while he had already created the Illuminati.

Lynn instantly knew what Nick Fury, that bald head, was planning. After a moment's thought, Lynn dialed James Duke's number.

Well, his current persona was HYDRA, so such a big matter naturally needed to be reported.

As the call connected, Lynn immediately whispered, "Director, I received accurate intelligence: Captain America, who should have died seventy years ago, has been resurrected!"

At Duke's home.

James Duke, who had been leisurely watching TV on the sofa, sprang up from the sofa after hearing Lynn's report.

"What did you say?! Steve Rogers is resurrected?! Didn't he die seventy years ago?! Damn it, how is this possible? What exactly happened?!"

Listening to Duke's extremely serious tone, Lynn recounted the events: "Director, I suspect S.H.I.E.L.D. found Steve Rogers long ago and has been conducting secret resurrection experiments on him!"

Hearing Lynn's report, James Duke's brows furrowed.

After thinking for a few seconds, Duke said, "Don't make any moves for now. I'll contact the others!"

"Understood!"

Hearing Duke say that, Lynn nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Lynn chuckled and turned to look into the house.

At this moment, Aunt Helen had already prepared a sumptuous dinner, and Gwen was waving to him through the window.

Lynn smiled and walked into the room.

Lynn could not care about Steve Rogers, but James Duke could not afford not to care.

After all, that was Steve Rogers!

He frowned and dialed Alexander Pierce's number.

Listening to James Duke's concerns, Pierce chuckled, "Don't worry, Duke, it's not seventy years ago anymore."

"An old relic abandoned by the times can't cause much trouble, besides, Nick Fury will definitely have him join S.H.I.E.L.D. At that time, who can say whether he's working for S.H.I.E.L.D. or for us?"

"However, Lynn's control over New York is somewhat beyond my expectation. I just received the news of Steve's awakening, but he already knew about it beforehand."

Hearing Pierce say that, James Duke felt a little relieved.

However, hearing Pierce mention Lynn, James Duke was filled with pride.

After all, Lynn was someone he had painstakingly recruited into HYDRA himself!

Captain America's thawing and resurrection from the ice did not cause too much of a stir.

After all, this matter was only known to a small circle of people.

Nothing major happened in the days after his birthday, except for James Duke talking to him for a long time.

Only Gwen finally shed her girl status.

In Lynn's room, in the early morning.

Looking at Gwen, who was still sound asleep on his chest, Lynn carefully placed her arm under the covers.

Yesterday, Gwen used the excuse of familiarizing herself with her future university to come to Lynn's place to sleep, and then late at night, she cosplayed as a medieval female knight, wanting to drain Lynn dry.

Her only miscalculation was that even though she had become Spider-Woman and her physical qualities in all aspects had been enhanced, she was still no match for Lynn.

【Gwen Stacy's favorability +10, gained 1000 experience points!】

Seeing the system's prompt, a hint of excitement appeared in Lynn's heart.

Indeed, just like Barbara before, Gwen's favorability also reached 10 points through this incident.

And a favorability of 10 points grants a daily bonus, meaning he could receive 1000 experience points from Gwen every day.

This way, his strength would surge!

Looking at Gwen, who was now sound asleep but had been teary-eyed last night, Lynn closed the system and gently tapped her nose.

"Mmm."

Gradually opening her hazy, sleepy eyes, Gwen subconsciously raised her hand and rubbed them.

When she saw Lynn looking at her dotingly, Gwen suddenly recalled what had happened last night.

"Hehe..."

She pounced on Lynn, kissed him, and then hugged him, giggling.

"What are you laughing at?"

Looking at Gwen, who was constantly giggling foolishly in his arms, Lynn also asked with a smile.

"Because I finally got what I wanted! You don't know how long I've waited for this day. You know, many girls in school, at 14, already..."

At this point, Gwen lifted the blanket, glanced at the sheets, and then raised her arm to Lynn, saying, "Lynn, carry me to bathe."

Looking at Gwen, who was acting coquettishly, Lynn got up and then carried Gwen towards the bathroom.

Clear water flowed over Lynn's broad back.

Looking at the well-defined muscles in front of her, Gwen secretly swallowed, then smiled at Lynn and said, "Let me help you scrub!"

As steam continuously rose, the ceiling also began to drip water.

After breakfast, Lynn and Gwen cuddled for a while before driving to the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.

In the office.

"What has Steve Rogers been doing lately?"

After handling some documents, Lynn looked at Barbara and asked.

"He's still getting used to this World. Every day he either takes the subway to the Captain America exhibition Hall or sits in a coffee shop in Times Square to draw."

"More often, he'll sit by the Hudson River in a daze, but there are quite a few people secretly protecting him!"

Hearing Barbara say that, Lynn put down his pen and smiled, "Protection? It should be S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents monitoring him!"

"After all, for someone who's been frozen for seventy years, even if he's the famous Captain America, that guy Nick Fury wouldn't be at ease!"

Seeing Lynn stand up, Barbara asked curiously, "Boss, are you going to see Steve Rogers?"

Seeing Lynn nod, Barbara immediately took out several collector's edition Captain America cards and said, "These aren't mine, boss, Joey asked me to give them to you."

"She's a fan of Captain America and knows you'll definitely go see him, so she asked me to give you the cards, hoping you can have Steve sign them!"

Looking at the cards Barbara handed over, Lynn chuckled, then said, "Tell Joey, I'll have a chance to let her meet Captain America himself."

After speaking, Lynn left the office.

Lynn going to see Steve Rogers wasn't a whim, but at James Duke's request.

Although Alexander Pierce said that S.H.I.E.L.D. would recruit Captain America and make him effectively work for HYDRA.

But that was Captain America after all, how could Duke be at ease?

He couldn't recruit him into the New York FBI, nor could he eliminate him under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s nose.

So Duke thought for a long time and decided to have Lynn contact Steve Rogers.

Although the FBI couldn't compete with S.H.I.E.L.D. for Captain America, Lynn's Illuminati could.

As long as Steve Rogers joined the Illuminati, then under Lynn's surveillance, he wouldn't have to worry about Steve Rogers discovering anything.

In a coffee shop near Times Square, Manhattan.

Sitting in a chair, Steve Rogers held a pencil, sketching the building in front of him.

"Are you also here waiting for Iron Man?"

Bringing over the coffee Steve ordered, the waitress looked at the tall, handsome man with a melancholic aura in front of her and asked with a smile.

"What?"

Facing the woman's question, Steve subconsciously looked up; he didn't know what Iron Man was.

"Iron Man doesn't fly through here in his armor every day. If you want to see the armor with your own eyes, it's best to wait until Monday. Every Monday he goes to Stark Tower."

"Stark Tower?"

Hearing the familiar surname, Steve Rogers asked, "Was it built by Howard Stark?"

Thinking that Steve in front of her was deliberately playing dumb, the waitress gave him a smile and then turned to leave.

Watching her leave, Steve thought he had said something wrong again, so he continued to sketch the building in front of him in his notebook.

Since he woke up, such misunderstandings happened frequently.

"It's not that you said something wrong; it's that she thinks you're deliberately trying to flirt. When she comes back, she might ask you to go to the movies."

Hearing a male voice beside him, Steve subconsciously looked up.

When he saw the handsome young man in front of him holding a coffee and smiling at him, Steve nodded in acknowledgement.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard the young man continue, "Do you mind if I sit here?"

"Of course not."

Facing Lynn's question, Steve made a gesture to invite him.

"Thank you."

Sitting in the chair and taking a sip of his coffee, Lynn smiled, "Actually, this era is quite good, isn't it? Although it might be a bit unfamiliar to you."

"But compared to seventy years ago, this era has undergone tremendous changes in terms of food, technology, medical care, and entertainment."

Hearing Lynn say that, Steve's eyes changed instantly, and he looked at Lynn with full vigilance.

"Who are you?"

Seeing Steve's vigilance, Lynn smiled, "Don't be nervous. Let me introduce myself, Lynn Hall, Deputy Director of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation."

"I've been watching you for many days. In fact, ever since you burst out of the S.H.I.E.L.D. treatment room in Brooklyn, I noticed you."

At this point, Lynn extended his hand with a smile: "Welcome back, Mr. Steve Rogers."

Sensing that the young man in front of him had no ill intent, Steve also extended his hand and shook Lynn's.

Of course, he knew about the FBI organization.

The FBI was first established in 1908, a detective agency commissioned by the then President to the Attorney General. It was named the Bureau of Investigation in May 1909, and officially changed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in 1935.

And Steve Rogers crashed his plane into the glacier in 1945, so he knew about the FBI.

Not far away.

"Officer, Lynn Hall of the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation is currently speaking with Captain America. Do you need to intervene?"

Listening to the Agent's report, Maria Hill said, "No need to intervene."

"Received!"

Hearing Hill's instruction, the S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent continued to drink his coffee.

Inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

"Lynn Hall has officially made contact with Captain America. Do you think he will directly recruit Steve Rogers?"

Facing Hill's question, Nick Fury shook his head: "Probably not. Lynn is likely just trying to make contact with him for now."

"Lynn will only extend an invitation once Steve is completely accustomed to this era."

"After all, from the time he joined the FBI until now, judging by all the cases he's handled, he never does anything unprepared."

Putting down the pen in his hand, Nick Fury handed the document to Hill: "Archive it. It won't be entered into the S.H.I.E.L.D. computer system. Whether it's the Illuminati or the Avengers, their primary goal should be to protect the safety of this World!"

Taking the document from Nick Fury's hand, Hill nodded and then turned to leave.

It wasn't until Maria Hill left that Nick Fury looked at another document.

The content of the document was a department he had ordered to be named the Dark Matter Research Base.

Manhattan.

“The people from S.H.I.E.L.D. don’t mean any harm; they’re just worried about what might happen to me in this unfamiliar World.”

At this point, Steve chuckled self-deprecatingly: “After all, an old guy who’s been asleep for nearly seventy years and can’t keep up with the times, no one knows what he might do.”

Facing Steve Rogers’s self-deprecation, Lynn, however, said seriously: “The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s duty is to protect the safety of this country, but you already accomplished that in 1945.”

“In the hearts of the people, you will always be a legendary hero of this country.”

“I think, even if another seventy years pass, people will not forget you.”

At this point, Lynn smiled: “Haven’t you already visited the exhibition Hall that the country specially created for you? So you should know that what I’m saying is true.”

Hearing Lynn say this, Steve recalled the pictures of his teammates who had fought alongside him and his close friend Bucky in the exhibition Hall, and a hint of melancholy flashed in his eyes.

“Regardless, Captain Rogers, welcome back.”

Standing up and extending his hand to Steve, Lynn smiled: “If you have any needs, or encounter any problems, you can always find me.”

Looking at the name card Lynn handed over, Steve stood up, took it, and shook Lynn’s hand: “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, after all, you’ve dedicated everything to this country!”

With that, Lynn bid farewell.

Watching Lynn leave, Steve Rogers looked at the business card in his hand, then tucked it into his notebook.

“Um, do you know Mr. Lynn Hall?”

The waitress, who had changed into her clothes and was about to go off duty to meet Steve, curiously asked Steve after seeing Lynn leave.

“Is he very famous?”

“Of course, that’s Lynn Hall, he’s a hero of this country!”

Seeing Steve’s puzzled look, the waitress immediately began to introduce him.

Both James Duke and Nick Fury wanted Steve to join the Illuminati.

But Lynn did not choose to recruit him directly.

After all, it was their first meeting, especially before Steve Rogers had become familiar with this World.

If he were to directly propose that he join the Illuminati, it would be too rash.

In fact, Lynn was also preparing to have Steve join the Illuminati.

After all, once he joined the Illuminati, Lynn would be able to logically sell HYDRA in the future.

Mid-July, inside Lynn’s office.

Since becoming Deputy Director, Lynn’s workload had increased.

Although Lynn generally didn't have to go out on field missions, his desk was piled with many documents that required his approval.

Expense reports from the action team, case archiving, documents issued by the Department of Justice, and even matters concerning the training department required Lynn’s management.

That old guy, James Duke, was becoming more and more idle.

“Boss, have some coffee.”

Placing the brewed coffee on Lynn’s desk, Barbara smiled: “You’ve been handling the training department’s matters all morning, it’s time to take a break!”

Hearing Barbara’s words, Lynn put down his pen, leaned back in his chair, and said: “The supervisors of the training department are a bunch of idiots. It’s bad enough that their training for new recruits’ various abilities isn’t great, but they actually let them approach those drug lords before investigating thoroughly.”

“Twenty-three new recruits, thirteen of them died before they even officially started.”

Seeing Lynn leaning back in his chair, Barbara stepped forward and gently massaged Lynn’s head: “Such heavy losses? Boss, how do you plan to deal with that guy?”

“The Department of Justice stepped in to save him, but he probably won’t be able to hold any official position in any government organization for the rest of his life.”

Lynn pulled Barbara’s hand, drawing her onto him, gently squeezed her perky butt, then pressed her down under the desk.

Kneeling before Lynn, Barbara skillfully unzipped his pants and greeted Little Lynn.

It must be said that ever since she followed Lynn, Barbara’s oral skills had become increasingly adept.

“Phew.”

The fatigue of the entire morning slowly dissipated, and Lynn opened his system to check.

Name: Lynn Hall

Intelligence: 3

Strength: 6

Speed: 3

Stamina: 4

Energy Projection: 0

Fighting Skills: 6

Skills: Israeli Krav Maga LV10 【MAX】, Firearms Mastery LV9 【2625/11000】, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu LV7 【780/2100】, Muay Thai LV7 【140/2100】, Cold Weapon Mastery LV6 【821/2600】, Super Strength LV5 【9/12000】, Teleportation LV4 【19/10000】, Spider-Sense LV3 【15/6000】, Super Self-Healing LV3 【2/6000】, Resilient Body LV1 【3/2000】

Experience: 436

Since Gwen started gifting 1000 experience points daily, in one month, thirty thousand experience points allowed him to upgrade all his superhuman abilities, naturally increasing his strength several times over.

After Super Strength was upgraded to LV5, his Strength attribute also became 6, and with the enhancement of Resilient Body on his physique, his Speed also became 3.

Oh, Resilient Body, this superhuman ability, was a new gifted skill obtained from Gwen this morning, which could comprehensively improve his physical fitness.

After Barbara finished cleaning up, she asked with a smile: “How’s your father doing recently?”

“He was specially hired by Professor X to be a Doctor at the Mutant Academy.”

Hearing Lynn’s question, Barbara said with a smile: “I never thought that after being a Doctor for the Brotherhood of Mutants in the black market for half his life, he would now transform into a Doctor at the Mutant Academy.”

“But that’s good too, it saves my father from always having nothing to do.”

As the two were talking, Lynn’s phone suddenly rang.

He picked up the phone and glanced at it, realizing it was Gwen calling.

As soon as Lynn answered the phone, he heard Gwen say with a hint of a sob: “Lynn, something happened, Dad was shot and sent to the hospital, he’s still undergoing surgery.”

Hearing Gwen’s words, Lynn instantly stood up from his chair.

After confirming the hospital address, Lynn immediately rushed towards the hospital.

The car sped along the road, and Lynn reached the hospital in less than twelve minutes for what should have been a thirty-minute drive.

He arrived at the operating room on the third floor, where the surgery was still in progress.

Several police Officers stood guard there, while Gwen, with red eyes, sat with Aunt Helen.

Upon seeing Lynn arrive, Gwen immediately threw herself into Lynn’s arms.

Gently comforting Gwen, who was crying out of worry, Lynn looked at one of the sergeants and said: “Chris, what exactly happened? How did Uncle George get shot?”

Although Lynn’s expression was calm, his gaze was extremely cold.

The aura he exuded even made Chris, the veteran sergeant, instinctively take a step back.

“Don’t worry, Lynn, George will be fine.”

Stepping forward and gently patting Lynn’s arm, Aunt Helen comforted him.

The calmer Lynn was, the more it indicated how furious he was at that moment.

As Helen, who had raised him since he was six, naturally knew how terrifying Lynn was in this state.

Just like when Gwen was bullied by older students when she was little, and Lynn rushed to the school.

“George was only shot in the left shoulder, there’s no danger to his life.” Helen said softly, pulling Lynn to sit down.

Only after hearing that Uncle George was not in life-threatening danger did Lynn finally relax.

Family had always been Lynn’s inverse scale; whoever harmed his family would face Lynn’s most brutal retaliation!

“Sergeant Chris, what exactly happened?”

Facing Lynn’s inquiry once more, Sergeant Chris began: “This morning we received a report that a crashed helicopter was found by the Hudson River.”

“When we arrived at the scene, we found that someone had killed the helicopter pilot and passengers.”

“Since the identity of the passengers in the helicopter was very important—they were the leaders of a money laundering organization we had been tracking—the Director personally led a team to apprehend the suspect.”

“As a result, when we found the suspect, a shootout occurred, and the Director was shot in the left shoulder!”

Hearing Sergeant Chris’s words, Lynn frowned: “Where’s the suspect?”

“Although we killed the suspect’s accomplice, he was shot and escaped under the cover of his accomplice.”

“We suspect this person’s identity is also unusual, because the police system has no information on the suspect whatsoever!”

Facing Sergeant Chris’s explanation, Lynn comforted Gwen while preparing to call Alice on his phone.

Before the call could connect, the operating room door opened.

Seeing the Doctor walk out, Lynn immediately stood up and walked forward: “Doctor, how is Uncle George doing?”

Facing Lynn’s question, the Doctor said: “Don’t worry, Mr. Hall, the bullet in Director George’s left shoulder has been removed, and there is no danger to his life.”

“He just needs a few months of rest. He’s still under anesthesia, and he should wake up in about an hour.”

Hearing the Doctor’s words, Lynn’s hanging heart finally settled.

After helping the Doctor move Uncle George to a private room, Lynn stood by the bed and said to Sergeant Chris: “You all can go back first, Aunt Helen and I will stay here.”

“After you go back, send me a sketch of the criminal suspect.”

Hearing Lynn say this, Sergeant Chris nodded.

He glanced at the unconscious George Stacy and then left with his men.

After the police left, Lynn took out his phone and made a call: “Alice, bring a few brothers to the hospital.”

Hanging up the phone, Lynn looked at the worried Gwen and gently comforted her.

By the time Alice arrived with her people from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, George Stacy had not yet woken up.

“This is a photo of the criminal, Alice. I don’t care what method you use, even if you have to dig three feet deep, you must find this person for me!”

Looking at the photo Lynn sent, Alice immediately nodded: “Yes, Boss!”

“Also, leave a few people to guard outside the ward to prevent retaliation from the criminal’s accomplices.”

Saying that, Lynn looked at Helen: “Aunt Helen, the members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s action team will be with you these next few days.”

“Lynn, are you saying the criminal who shot my dad will retaliate?”

Facing Gwen’s question, Lynn shook his head: “I’m not sure, but according to Sergeant Chris, that criminal’s identity should be unusual.”

“There’s no information about him in the police system, and he’s also connected to the largest money laundering organization in the area, so there should be a more powerful criminal organization behind the criminal.”

“Gwen, until I thoroughly investigate this matter and deal with these people, the best way is to have the action team protect you all!”

Understanding Lynn’s words, Gwen nodded: “Don’t worry, I’ll stay with Mom during this time.”

As they were talking, Uncle George on the hospital bed gradually woke up.

Seeing Uncle George open his eyes, Lynn and the others immediately gathered around with concern.

After regaining consciousness, looking at his family whose eyes were filled with worry, George Stacy said with a smile: “Don’t worry, I just accidentally got bitten by a bullet.”

Watching Uncle George struggle to sit up, Lynn took out a pillow and placed it at the head of the bed, then helped him sit up.

Receiving Lynn’s gaze, Alice turned and left.

From Lynn's calm tone, she could hear the towering rage!

As Lynn's order was given, the entire New York Federal Bureau of Investigation immediately sprang into action.

Satellites began a comprehensive search for the suspect's whereabouts, and surveillance footage from every corner of the city was retrieved.

All Agents and field operatives without current assignments within the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation began a thorough search of pharmacies and clinics.

Even many FBI informants started to become active.

As the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation began its large-scale investigation, various forces were alarmed.

Many people were trying to find out what had happened, and even gang members simultaneously retreated, fearing being targeted by the FBI.

After all, it hadn't been long since the New York FBI had made those large-scale arrests!

“Have you found out exactly what happened?”

Inside Hell's Kitchen.

Kingpin asked, sitting in his chair.

“Huh?”

Facing Kingpin's question, Bullseye, who was twirling a dagger, looked up with a somewhat bewildered expression.

The secretary, on the other hand, immediately replied, “Boss, I heard that George Stacy was shot, so Mr. Lynn Hall ordered a city-wide manhunt for the criminal!”

Seeing that Kingpin wasn't asking him, Bullseye lowered his head again and continued playing with his dagger.

Kingpin, however, after hearing the secretary's report, thought for a few seconds before saying, “Notify our people in the New York underground to dig out the person Mr. Hall is looking for!”

“Why are we helping him?”

Bullseye, looking up again, asked Kingpin with some confusion, “Boss, why are we helping Lynn Hall? He's an official organization, and we're a gang. Once our people move, he might misunderstand and think we're making a big move, then turn his guns on us. That would be a huge loss!”

Listening to Bullseye's thoughtless words, Kingpin looked at the secretary and said, “Go do it.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Seeing that Kingpin wasn't listening to his advice, Bullseye lowered his head and pouted.

The Boss always said he wasn't smart, but in his opinion, the Boss would sooner or later suffer a great loss because of Lynn Hall.

After all, Lynn was a very formidable guy!

As the New York underground forces also moved out, all the pharmacies and clinics in the city's black market were swept clean.

Even the police cooperating with the FBI were shocked by the actions of the city's gang members.

They hadn't expected that a simple order from Lynn could make those arrogant gang members cooperate!

Clues emerged in just half an hour.

After receiving the message from Alice, Lynn told Uncle George to rest assured, then drove back to the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Inside the New York S.H.I.E.L.D. office.

“This is Lynn Hall's ability. His words can not only mobilize all official organizations, but even the New York underground forces voluntarily come to help.”

Hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve, who was reading Illuminati files, looked up, “Are you saying Lynn Hall has connections with those gangs?”

Steve still had a good impression of Lynn Hall.

Whether it was the first impression Lynn left on him during their first meeting, or the female waitress praising Lynn as an idol.

Or the various deeds of Lynn he had investigated after returning.

He believed Lynn was a righteous, kind, and responsible person.

So he somewhat disbelieved Nick Fury's words.

Unless Nick Fury knew something he didn't.

“It's not that Lynn Hall has connections with New York's gangs, but it must be admitted that Lynn Hall is too young right now.”

Looking at Steve, Nick Fury said, “Although I also believe in Lynn's character, youth is always easily deceived.”

“Especially since he is the Deputy Director of the New York FBI and also founded the Illuminati.”

“Such a person will be sought after by all forces, so he needs a guide who can help him at critical moments.”

Hearing Nick Fury say this, Steve remained silent.

Someone who, having just turned 25, became the Deputy Director of the New York FBI without relying on background—would such a person be easily deceived?

Steve clearly understood Nick Fury's subtext: he wanted him to join the Illuminati.

If he could become Lynn Hall's guide, then perhaps he could control the Illuminati and make it obey S.H.I.E.L.D.'s orders.

But Steve didn't want to do that. He had learned about the Illuminati and naturally knew that everything the Illuminati did was to protect the people of New York.

Such an organization was good and didn't need to obey any organization's orders, otherwise the Illuminati would sooner or later become a weapon for some people to seize power.

“Don't worry, I'm not that despicable. It's just that the Illuminati truly needs our supervision!”

Hearing Nick Fury say this, Steve stood up and said, “Although I haven't fully integrated into this World and don't know what this World is like.”

“But I am very glad that after I woke up, I know that this country has people like Lynn Hall.”

“This proves that my act of crashing the plane into the glacier back then was correct!”

After expressing his views, Steve Rogers turned and left.

Inside the New York Federal Bureau of Investigation.

“Boss, that criminal, after being shot, would definitely go to a clinic or pharmacy to buy medicine for gun wounds.”

“So we questioned all the small clinics and pharmacies in the city, and found that the culprit had undergone surgery at a black market clinic.”

“According to the black market Doctor, after he finished the surgery, he also stole the clinic Doctor's phone.”

Saying that, Joey pointed to the information on the large screen and said, “We tracked that Doctor's phone technically and found that after he stole the phone, he dialed a landline number.”

“Alice has already taken people to the landline address, and there should be some Gains!”

Hearing Joey say this, Lynn asked, “Have you found the criminal's identity information?”

“No!”

Facing Lynn's question, Joey shook his head and said, “I used the photo to compare it in the global database, but unfortunately, I couldn't find his information.”

As the two were talking, they saw Alice escorting in a black man with gunshot wounds to both legs.

“Boss, when we arrived at the address Joey provided, we found this guy trying to escape through the back door. After seeing us, he still wanted to shoot back, but we shot him in both legs!”

“If it weren't for keeping him alive, we would have shot him dead on the spot!”

Looking at the trembling black man, Lynn directly had Alice take him to the interrogation room.

Inside the interrogation room.

“FUXX, you should be sending me to the hospital right now, not interrogating me!”

Pinned to the interrogation chair, the black man roared at Lynn, “Even if I'm a criminal, I still have human rights, and besides, you don't have any evidence of my crime.”

Hearing the black man's roar, Lynn pressed his head down hard onto the interrogation table.

Listening to the guy's screams, Lynn placed a photo of the criminal who injured Uncle George in front of him: “Where is this guy?”

The moment he saw the photo, the black man's pupils visibly constricted.

“I don't know him, you've got the wrong person, FUXX, I'm a U.S. citizen, I need treatment, you can't do this to me!”

“Playing tough?”

Listening to the black man's roar, Lynn's expression turned cold.

“Boss, hand him over to me!”

Looking at the black man's stubborn demeanor, Alice stepped forward and said.

“No need, I'll have a good time with this black man!”

Saying that, Lynn took out a dagger from his waist.

“You damn it, what do you want to do?”

The moment he saw the dagger, the black man supported his body, constantly trying to shrink back.

But the fixed chair in the interrogation room left him with nowhere to hide, and Lynn even directly pressed his hand onto the table.

Seeing this, Alice turned and led the others out of the interrogation room.

As for the word “black man” their Boss just used, Alice and the others completely pretended not to hear it.

The FBI wasn't without black Agents, but there wasn't a single black Agent among the Boss's true confidants!

“Ah!!!”

Standing at the interrogation room door, hearing the painful screams coming from inside.

One of the subordinates looked at Alice and said, “Alice, why are we out here? I'd love to learn the Boss's interrogation techniques too.”

“Maybe I can use them later.”

Hearing her subordinate's words, Alice raised an eyebrow, “What, you want to improve?”

“Who doesn't want to improve? I'm already S14, and the Boss is now Deputy Director, the supervisor position is vacant. If it weren't for you guys just becoming assistant supervisors, maybe one of you could fill it now.”

“But I guess it'll be soon, they can't just parachute a supervisor from headquarters, right? Then...”

Before he could finish speaking, intense screams once again erupted from the interrogation room.

Hearing the screams rise several octaves, Alice walked outside.

“Where are you going?”

“Medical room, to get adrenaline. Clearly, the Boss is extremely angry right now.”

After saying that, Alice quickly left.

Not long after, when Alice returned to the outside of the interrogation room, she saw Lynn open the door.

Seeing this, Alice immediately handed over the adrenaline, and then the interrogation room door was closed again!

Seeing this, the subordinate gave Alice a thumbs up: “How did you know the Boss would need adrenaline?”

“How long have I been with the Boss? You guys, you need to learn more!”

A few minutes later, when the interrogation room door opened, Lynn shook the blood from his hands, then said to Alice, “Clean it up, then get ready. We're heading to Ohio in ten minutes!”

“Yes!”

Watching the Boss walk towards the restroom, Alice immediately took people to prepare.

The S14 Agent who had been talking subconsciously glanced into the interrogation room, then his mouth twitched continuously.

Inside the interrogation room, the black man's right hand had become Stark white bone, with not even a shred of flesh remaining on the entire bone hand.

Inside James Duke's office.

“This incident has caused quite a stir, even the city Hall is asking me what happened.” Duke said with a chuckle as he watched Lynn enter.

“Sorry, Director.”

Hearing Lynn say this, Duke smiled and waved his hand: “Nothing to apologize for. If we don't find the killer when a member of our FBI family is shot, that would be the most shameful thing.”

“Besides, the one injured is the Director of the New York Police Department. Have you investigated the matter thoroughly?”

“It's already been investigated thoroughly.”

Looking at Duke, Lynn explained: “The criminal who injured Uncle George came from Britain, and his purpose was to conduct a transaction with New York's largest local money laundering organization.”
